I would like to propose ejecting 400,000 politicians and lawyers into deep space annually to maintain our balance.

@clb92 Where do you think it goes after it burns? Magical space elves come and cart it away? Or maybe it still contributes to the overall weight of the planet.

I'm disappointed that the response rate is not 100% accuracy.

Even if something burns, the law of conservation of mass suggests that toasted space dust would still be with us.

So if we grab a few Black Holes we can vacuum up all the extra Space Dust, get rid of the debris from all the Fast Food Meals, suck up the extra moisture from the Melting Glaciers, and then clog them up with the 400,000 politicians, and then call HTG to fix it.

They'd vacuum us up too.

get rid of the debris from all the Fast Food Meals

How, exactly?

suck up the extra moisture from the Melting Glaciers

Just so you know, they aren't taking up any weight.

Look, if we could grab the Black hole to begin with we'd know how to keep it from sucking us up to begin with

Just figured if we could use a black hole like a wet-vac we could do some general house cleaning, then use the Politicians to clog it up ( finally, a use for a politician! )
